HERE’S HOW THE CREATORS DESCRIBE THIS VIDEO:

Adolescent dating violence (ADV) significantly impacts youth wellbeing and increases the risk of adult domestic violence. Although parents and caregivers are critical to prevention, traditional prevention programs often struggle to reach or engage them effectively. ConnectED Parents offers a tech-driven approach designed to support caregivers of children aged 6 to 20 to prevent ADV through three core components: 1) 70 interactive, skills-based text messages delivered directly to parents’ phones, 2) a moderated Facebook group, and 3) peer support through trained peers.

In this session, Lianne Lee presents key research findings, practical lessons, and insights on sustainability — offering a map for scaling tech-based, parent-centered approaches to prevent adolescent dating violence and foster healthy youth relationships.
